Hand Surgery – Benalmadena<\/strong><\/p>\n

UK- trained Orthopaedic surgeon Dr. Alf Neuhaus <\/a>has also been trained for several years in hand surgery. He frequently performs standard procedures like median nerve decompression for carpal tunnel syndrome<\/a> or trigger finger release as an out- patient procedure under local anaesthetics, using the facilities of Clinica SANDALF<\/a>. The advantages of out- patient procedures are that no hospital stay is needed, because the procedure is performed under local anaesthetics. You therefor do not need to come in starving for the procedure and you can go home straight after it.<\/p>\n

Following these procedures the pain and, in case of a carpal tunnel, the numbness of the hand would be gone immediately. In 10 to 12 days you should be back to normal daily activities, and within three weeks back to sports, including playing golf, tennis or similar.<\/p>\n

Far more sophisticated procedures like the release and decompression of Dupuytren\u2019s disease<\/a> would be performed in a nearby private hospital. Orthopaedic surgeon Dr. Alf Neuhaus would bring his own special instruments for this type of surgery. Depending on how far and how long the effected finger(s) had been bend towards the palm of the hand he might apply a plaster splint immediately after the surgery for a few weeks. Hospital stay would be two days, and all follow up consultations for wound control suture removal and special hand therapy by our UK- trained physiotherapist<\/a> would be performed in the facilities of Clinica SANDALF.<\/p>\n

As the wound of a Dupuytren\u2019s disease can effect most of the palm of the hand, it can take three weeks to heal completely. It can take another three weeks to achieve complete range of movement of the operated finger(s) to full extension. Normal use of the operated hand should be possible by 6 to 9 weeks, including swimming. And after 12 weeks you should be able to go back to any sports activities including, golf or tennis.<\/p>\n

If you are a UK- citizen you are entitled to a refund of the costs for the surgery by the UK NHS<\/a> of up to 80%. Our team would be very happy to assist you with the paper work. Please be aware that it is yet not clear if this NHS support would still be available after the Brexit.<\/p>\n

Please get in touch<\/a> with us if you would like to know more or to make an appointment.<\/p>\n
